I am looking to change the width of a column to fit a longer word.
hello I have created table in a PDF file using iText. The heading of my table columns are "Medicine Name", "Doses", and "time: This is what my columns look like:
|Medicin|Doses|time| | e name| | |
As you can see the word "Medicine" is split into "Medicin" and "e". I want to avoid this by changing the width of the first column, but I don't know how to do that.

The ColumnWidths example demonstrates different ways of changing the width of a column. This is one specific way:
PdfPTable table = new PdfPTable(3); table.setWidths(new int[]{2, 1, 1});
Now the width of the first column is double the size of the second and third column.
